They send us the horrible winter weather we suffer through 8 months out of the year; they come across the border and act all friendly-like, but WE KNOW!! They want to enslave us; force us to consume maple syrup at every meal, worship beavers and watch nothing but hockey on tv. Oh, yeah and wear nothing but flannel shirts nd end evey sentance with "eh?", even if we're NOT asking a question!
DARN YOU CANADIANS!! DARN YOU TO HECK!!!!

Damn...our secret is out!
Seriously, as a very proud Canadian, I think that while there certainly are subtle differences between Canadian and Americans we are basically the same. I have a lot of family living in the USA and don't view them any differently I do my family living here.
While we aren't as openly patriotic as Americans we are proud of our gorgeous country. I like the fact that people view us as non-threatening and friendly. I mean really - how threatening can we be with our one or two helicopters that keep crashing and when the majority of our naval fleet is in a mall!
